We've found the colours fit a little differently:
Bronze fits up to 43 inch hips and 25 inch thighs, with a 16 inch stretch in the cuff.
Platinum fits up to 52 inch hips and 32 inch thighs, with a 22 inch stretch in the cuff.
Plum fits up to 43 inch hips and 28 inch thighs, with an 18 inch stretch in the cuff.

Additional Info: Silky soft microfiber makes these super comfortable and the flat waistband & single seam from front to back make these super sleek under any fabric.

Disappointed: don't trust the size guide!Based on the sizing tips I should easily fit into the platinum color with plenty of room to spare. It was because of those very sizing tips that I--with trepidation--decided to purchase these. Well, the sizing tips are just plain wrong. The fit through the legs is fine but it gets tight in the hips and horribly pinchy in the waist--my hips are only 43", so there's no way anyone larger that that is going to fit into these; at least not without massive discomfort and muffin-toppage. Really disappointed since I can't return these and I'll probably never wear them. They are really cute and I would be happy to recommend them to all the tiny people out there.

Comfy and cute!I have grown very fond of Foot Traffic products. All of their socks and leggings stretch to fit my long legs without the feeling of constriction. There was also minimal itch. And when a package says "opaque" I usually don't believe it, so I was pleasantly surprised to find that these were actually opaque, even when i bent my knees! They did start to slide down a teeny bit, but stayed up excellently and comfortably with shorts. All in all a great product and I have yet to be dissappointed with this brand!

Fits like a glove!I bought these in Platinum because I have really huge hips and thighs, and it fits perfectly. It's the only pair of tights I've found so far that fits this well!

Like a dream!These are incredible. They are super soft and snuggley and fit perfectly--no tightness anywhere. I love how high they rise on the hip, too. Comfy and seamless, I don't even notice. I also love that they have sort of cuffs at the ankle, a black area and then a stretchy band so they don't flare out. It's nice visually. On top of that, the design is cute, and they really are opaque, although they thin out when I bend my knee, but otherwise it's solid coverage. I couldn't be happier. For reference, I'm 5'8" and 140lbs.

Fancy and accommodatingGot these in Platinum - they're just as described, with room to spare. Being tall, wide-hipped and long-legged, tights are rarely my friend, but these did exactly what they said on the box. They don't distort or look sheer, and are more than long enough. I'm tempted to try another colour despite the size difference, as I reckon the Platinums give me even more room than stated. Only minor quibble - I received them with loose threads on the bottom cuff. Can't snip them off without creating runs so I tuck them in.

PerfectLiterally the most comfortable pair of tights I think I've ever owned. They're soft, they have PLENTY of stretch with almost no discernible distortion of the pattern, they're gorgeous, and the waistband doesn't dig in painfully. They seem to be quite sturdy and I don't anticipate them getting runs anytime soon. I got these tights in plum, but I'm sure they're just as fantastic in any other color.

sadly inconsistentI first bought these with the gold scroll work and they fit fabulously, very comfy, and they're one of my favorite pairs.
Sadly when I bought them in pink the waist is way shorter and I feel like I'm constantly chasing them :( I primarily use my tights for aerial dance and I can't stand the feeling of needing to "chase" my escaping tights while I'm trying to train!

Hi, are these opaque enough to wear under a long shirt or are they sheer like tights? Thanks!

Asked by: laurend

Yes, these are thin like tights. Though we would not necessarily call them 'sheer', since you cannot see through the material.
